Chapter 0413, xia, you're over!
Early in the morning of December 14, the photo of Ronaldo and Xia Xing holding the Ballon d'Or trophy with both hands became the headlines of major sports media.
This unprecedented and eternal spectacle has become the talk of countless fans.
And the sudden rise of Xia Xing has also made many football experts predict.
Will the era of Ronaldo and Messi's peerless pride come to an end?
Will Xia Xing take over the baton from the two and become the new king of football?
Countless experts, media, and fans are arguing about this competition.
Cristiano Ronaldo fan: "I'm the best in the world! And it's going to be for a long time to come!"
Xia Xing fan: "Xia is just 22 years old and won the Ballon d'Or, he will definitely become the number one person in the world!"
Not only the fans of Ronaldo and Xia Xing, but also the fans of Messi naturally joined in.
Messi: "Ronaldo is two years older than Messi, xia is too young, the state is not easy to say, the future is still Messi's world!"
Countless fans chattered and cursed on the Internet.
But Xia Xing didn't care about this.
For him, the most important thing is to race and train in a down-to-earth manner.
If you have more time, you can also care about the company's operation, and you don't have time to care about the cyber war.
Although it is said to be caring, in fact, it is only understanding at most.
Xia Xing won the Golden Globe, and Aliana was even happier than him.
On the one hand, I am happy for Xia Xing from the bottom of my heart.
On the other hand, it is also because Xia Xing won the Golden Globe Award that the company's operating conditions have risen, and it has rapidly increased its revenue by nearly fifty percent.
What an amazing boost!
While Xia Xing won the Golden Globe Award, Aliona also won several newcomer awards in the industry.
This is important for a new company, a new boss.
And Mendes is behind the scenes, and he also gives Alyona a lot of help.
These summer trips are all in my eyes and in my heart.
On the evening of December 13, Xia Xing participated in the FIFA annual ceremony and returned with a cup.
He didn't have much time to rest, though.
On December 15, he accompanied the team to Crystal Palace to face opponents in the 16th round of the Premier League.
It's an away game and the pressure is on United.
The opponent has been in good form lately, especially in good physical condition.
Manchester United, on the other hand, has just beaten Tottenham a few days ago, and the main players are seriously physically exhausted.
Jose Mourinho sent a number of substitutes for this game.
He originally wanted Xia Xing to be a substitute, or simply rest at home and not enter the 18-man squad.
After all, Xia Xing has been busy with the Golden Globe Awards in the past few days, and his energy consumption is relatively serious.
But Xia Xing insisted on fighting.
"I'm fine!"
Seeing Xia Xing so persistent, Mourinho had no choice.
In the end, he still let Xia Xing start and wear the captain's armband.
But Manchester United were in poor form in this game.
From the first minute of the game, Crystal Palace stormed around Manchester United's half.
With a few occasional counter-attacks, it is difficult for Manchester United to have a chance to break the game.
Especially Xia Xing, there were two rare mistakes.
Both direct passes were destroyed by the opponent and were out of standard.
Even Alan Shearer in the live broadcast room only shook his head.
"Xia, what's wrong? Why did you just win the Ballon d'Or and then your form declined? This is obviously not his normal level......
Alan Shearer has always been a fan of Xia Xing and often praises him, and this criticism is rare.
Carragher next to him pouted: "It's just a Golden Globe Award, it doesn't mean anything. Are there still fewer short-lived players in international football in recent years? Even if he reached the top at the same time as Cristiano Ronaldo, he is still far from the peerless duo and he still needs to do a lot to prove that he is a top star."
Both commentators saw it, and Mourinho found out earlier.
Throughout the first half, Xia Xing's state was far worse than before.
Not only the competitive state, but even the concentration has declined.
It's not good.
Not to mention the summer trip in the Manchester United stage, even in the previous three years at Leicester City, Xia Xing has not been in this situation.
Does it really have anything to do with winning the Golden Globes?
After hitting the plane with an outrageous long-range shot, assistant coach Perrin couldn't help but complain.
"Jose, why don't we replace him?"
"Well, I do, but not right now."
"yes, replace him now, it's really a shame to him."
"At halftime, let him come down and have a good rest......
The referee's whistle blew and the first half ended.
Mourinho told Pogba on the bench: "Go up and warm up and come on as a substitute in the second half."
"Hmm."
Pogba agreed.
He wasn't fit well in this game, so he was on the bench.
Even so, he was still uncomfortable when he saw that Xia Xing could still start.
In this Manchester United team, he and Xia Xing are absolute rivals.
Both men moved at the same time, both young talented midfielders of similar age.
But the circumstances are very different.
One is the core of the five-time champions and the other is the Juventus rising star.
In half a season, Xia Xing's form was significantly better than him.
This made Pogba very angry.
The reason why I didn't do as well as you was because you got more balls!
If I had more opportunities to perform, more opportunities to organise passes, I would have been better than you!
But he forgot that at the beginning of this season, he once occupied the core position of the team's organization, and Xia Xing assisted him.
However, a month later, he was suppressed by Xia Xing's amazing performance, and he slowly lost the qualification to compete for the team's number one person.
But he did forget, and now, he felt that his opportunity had come.
Running briskly on the pitch to warm up, Pogba felt like he was full of energy!
In the second half, I will definitely lead the team to turn the tide! ap.
At the door of the dressing room, Mourinho stopped Xia Xing.
"Xia, you rest in the second half."
"Coach, I'm ......"
"Listen to me, let's take a break!"
"Good ......"
Seeing Xia Xing thoughtful, Mourinho hurriedly whispered to reassure.
"Xia, I've rarely seen you in such ups and downs, you need to get some rest. Don't overthink it, calm your mind."
"Okay."
Xia Xing nodded and walked into the locker room.
Jose Mourinho let out a sigh of relief.
For the Portuguese these days, taking care of the emotions of the players has become an important concern.
At one time, whether it was Porto or Chelsea, his iron-fisted approach to the military was unwavering.
But with the lack of success in Real Madrid and Chelsea, he slowly began to change his thinking.
These young players are more out-of-the-box and can't be treated as hard as they used to be.
The current team is not the management model of the army.
So if he replaced Xia Xing, he must not let Xia Xing have an emotional change.
Pogba will replace Xia Xing in the second half, and whether the team's winning streak can continue depends on the performance of Mr. 100 million yuan......
